Does System Computer Complex...
 

Does System Computer Complex add any additional benefits, after I already have a Central Computer Complex III on each of my Research Compound planets?

This is, of course, an SE4 question.

They stack together.

No [censored]? Wow, that's cool...and here all this time, I've been under the impression they did not stack.

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

The game generally allows one instance of each ability to be applied - using the best one in cases where there is more than one.

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

I think (85%) there was an earlier version where they didn't stack...

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

Would have been around 1.2 at the latest.

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

Yes, it's a faint memory which someone reminded me about semi-recently. I thought it was around the Gold release.

I think I was probably confusing it with the change in 1.89 to the values of some of the levels:
2. Changed - Mineral Scanner I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.
3. Changed - Hybrid Eco - Farms I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.
4. Changed - Radioactives Collider I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.
5. Changed - System Mineral Scanner I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.
6. Changed - System Eco - Farms I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.
7. Changed - System Radioactives Collider I, II, III have had their modifiers increased to 15%, 30%, 45%.

OK, that's why then. I probably tested it back 5 years ago when the game was new, found it didn't stack, and totally missed the later change.

PvK, so what about those you list above? If I have a Robotics Factory III on my mineral-producing planet, then later build a System Mineral Scanner III, do both those bonuses stack?

Would Mineral Scanner III stack with System Mineral Scanner III? Enquiring minds want to know!

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

Robotoid won't stack with a Mineral Scanner because they use the same ability - the higher value would be used. The planet-wide ability does stack with the system-wide ability as Kwok mentioned.

Re: Does System Computer Complex...
 

Robotoid + Mineral Scanner = 45% increase (only better value works)
System Robotoid + System Mineral Scanner = 45% increase (only better value works)
Robotoid + System Robotoid = 69% (stack multiplicatively)
Robotoid + System Mineral Scanner = 88.5% increase
Mineral Scanner + System Robotoid = 88.5% increase
Mineral Scanner + System Mineral Scanner = 110.25% increase

Note that the increase from system-wide facilities will not be shown on the individual planets. The only figure the game displays that includes that bonus is the empire-wide total.
